Scrapbooking is a fun way to remember special events. There are various digital scrapbooking options in addition to traditional scrapbooking; but it all comes down to creating a special memory out of your photographs, complete with captions and descriptions of your experiences.

When composing a sports picture, leave some room for the action. For instance, if a runner is going left to right, leave more room on the right side of the frame for him/her to run into. This will make a big difference on the impact of the image.

Try using a preset or custom white balance in a stadium or indoor arena. Because light often is different at indoor venues, the best way to get optimal color is to create a unique white balance, which is what the preset does. Cameras vary in how to accomplish that so check your manual.

A panorama can help you capture the breadth of a great vista. With a COOLPIX camera, try the panorama scene mode or panorama assist mode. Check your camera’s manual to see which mode your specific camera has. This will help you with overlap as you shoot your sequence of images.

Don’t let telephone poles or trees sprout out of your subject’s head. Check the background carefully. Look over your subject’s shoulder to see whether any poles, trees or even cars are in the background. Sometimes simply moving a step to the left or right a few feet can make your picture much better.

Did you know that the Nikon 1 line of cameras bodies can use many of your f/mount DSLR lenses? Using the FT-1 Mount Adapter, you can use many of your legacy lenses on a Nikon 1. This is great if you have a favorite macro lens or super telephoto.

Photographing cats or dogs with a flash can cause green/yellow eyes, which are similar to the red-eye seen in humans. To avoid this, use some of the same techniques you use to avoid red-eye, such as bouncing a Speedlight or increasing the light in the room you’re shooting in.

Always bring out your camera when family or friends gather together. Even if it is not a big holiday celebration. You never know when the kids will do something cute that you’ll want to capture and if you’re busy searching for the camera you may miss the moment.

A great way to remember your trips or special events is by making a photo book. There are many websites that allow you to upload your images and easily design a photo book, complete with captions, as well as photo labs, and at the photo department of larger stores. It's a fun way to share your photographic experiences with friends.

If you’re going out with the intention of photographing a specific type of animal, do a little quick research before you head out. Knowing their habits can give you an edge when it comes to getting great photographs.

If you’re using a GPS-enabled COOLPIX digital camera and are on vacation and not sure where to go next, check out the POI (Points of Interest) feature which will let you know of landmarks that are nearby to your location.

To get the starburst effect you often see in photos, use the smallest aperture possible on your camera (this is usually f/16 or f/22) and shoot towards the sun. Shooting towards the sun will cause you to see flare in an image sometimes but this can add interest to your image. Shoot a bunch of frames—capturing the starburst with and without flare.

If you’re taking really important photos that you won’t be able to recreate, bracket your exposures to ensure the photos look great. Most Nikon digital cameras have an exposure-bracketing mode that you can set. It is faster if you let the camera do the bracketing, instead of you having to snap a photo, change the exposure, snap another frame, change it again, and snap a new frame.

When shooting video of an event, add interviews for a unique viewpoint. Shooting a birthday party—talk to the birthday boy or girl; shooting your kids sport—interview them or the coach—at a wedding—ask the bride and groom to comment.

When shooting food, simple compositions are always better. Zoom into the dish so you don’t capture the table, or zoom tighter so you don’t even see the plate. If you’re taking a shot of your meal at a restaurant, move some of the cutlery or glassware out of the frame for a better shot. It will only take you a moment to do so.

Protect your DSLR lenses. Get a good UV, Skylight or Neutral Clear filter for the front of every lens. This will help protect the expensive front piece of glass in your lens. When you get in dirty or rainy conditions, you'll be wiping the filter clear instead of risking the front element.

When shooting a portrait of a person, even if it's a quick shot, don’t place them against a wall, even if they place themselves there. Its natural for people to back up against a wall for a picture, but that usually isn’t the most flattering way to shoot a portrait. Unless you specifically want to shoot right against a wall for creative reasons, politely ask them to take a few steps forward or follow you to where you want to place them in a scene.

When shooting in bright sand or snow, experiment with the exposure compensation settings (the +/- button) on your camera. Set it for +1 to make the image brighter, which often will make sand or snow look better.

Change your white balance during a sunrise or sunset. Take your camera off auto white balance and switch to Cloudy or Shady white balance. This will add more strength to the reds, oranges and yellows. Auto White Balance tries to keep colors neutral.

THE BEST
I just bought this special lens and immediately I found it so special!Simply the best!Ever!
October 22, 2011

Eye-poping clarity
I know I am probably just "singing to the choir", but I wanted to add my voice to the many admirers of this amazing lens. It has stellar optics and the color rendering is just delicious. When another lens might have difficulty capturing a shot because of tricky lighting, this hunk of glass comes through with yet another amazing image. This is the ultra-wide gold standard.
October 20, 2011

One of the best!
I use this for shooting landscape and am always excited with the results. It is a pricey lens but you get the one of the best.
September 11, 2011

I've owned this lens before but sold it due to the fact I wasn't using it much nor did I completely understand this lens.
After re-owning this lens for a week, I've gained a whole new respect for the lens and I don't think there is another lens that provides the color and contrast of this lens!
Highly recommend if you are on FX and looking for an ultra-wide angle lens. I can't think of a better lens near it's range.
Oh and if it matters, I own the trinity.
August 1, 2011

Best of the best
This lens is so close to perfect that it could be the best zoom lens ever made by Nikon. It is also suitable for both FX and DX formats. Simply outstanding!
July 4, 2011

Monster wide angle glass
Its big, it has some heft and its not cheap, but man does this lens take really great pictures.
Its seriously fast and has virtually zero artifacts at any zoom and aperture combination I have shot with.
And its incredibly sharp and a blast to use for just about anything from interiors to landscapes to pets and family..
May 26, 2011

Wonderful Lens. New horizon for me.
This the first lens that I get of the Golden Triad (I just ordered the Nikkor 24-70 mm f/ 2.8 E.D. last night)
I just love it. Even though I'm using it on a Dx frame body (my D7000) but I just love it because it gives me more freedom for indoor pics and gives more real feeling of the rooms. And it should come in handy when I upgrade to an Fx camera. (hopefully a 3Dx or 3Ds).
Even relatives who have no idea about lenses and focal lengths gave me comments to that regard.
The photos are tack sharp.
Everyday I believe more in the fact that if you need good results in photography, get the best that you cann afford, it really pays.
Super piece of glass!!
May 25, 2011

Super-wide and fast
Recently acquired this valuable tool. I immediately put it to use for some HDR shots and nighttime use in St. Louis Forest Park. It allowed some great photos of the front of the St. Louis Art Museum from a close perspective.
I would recommend adding it to your 3-4 lenses you want with you on any travel photography.
May 18, 2011

Would not leave home without it
Outstanding lens. Clearity edge to edge. Slight distortion at widest Zoom which adds to landscapes and scenery. Found it too much for my taste for wildlife, or portrait.; at widest zoom. I only wish the sun shade attachment extended just a little bit but that might not be possible given such the wide angle of view at 14mm setting. Distortion at 14mm is not near as much as the fish eye effect which I personally do not favor. I would not leave home without this lens in my bag even when I only carry 3 or 4 lenses for my field back pack.
May 14, 2011

Up to Nikons' outstanding other lenses.
A Bit larger and heavier than I'm used to but very easy to adapt to the 14-24mm f2.8 Zoom.
I do like the fact that the lens is f2.8 at all focal lengths, easily hand holdable.
April 18, 2011

Lives up to its reputation
I bought this lens after reading an independent review that compared it to another high quality brand that tends to be used as a performance standard. The review concluded that the Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8G was better or equal in almost all respects. After using this lens intensively for the last year, I have to agree. The colors are true and the resolution is stunning throughout the entire zoom spectrum. This and the 24 to 70 zoom are the two most used lenses in my camera back. Forget about carrying other fixed focal length lenses, you are not going to get better pictures!!!
April 15, 2011

Exceptional lens
This is a truely excellent lens. Provides remarkably bright and sharp images with great color. Downside is lack of support for attached filters which can be overcome via DIY and third party supported products. Strongly recommended.
April 15, 2011

It's worth every penny
How can you not love this lens.
I shoot Pro, mostly fashion shows as i'm a fashion photographer.
I also do some Real Estate Photography when the opportunity arises and on my leaser time, i shoot nature. Some for stock photography and some for my own personal portfolio.
The attached pic is on a beautiful sunday after a night of hard rain.
The results really show how beautifully the 14-24mm will allow you to bring the viewer into the scene. It is a must have, in any camera gear.
I recommend it.
14-24mm f/:2.8 G ED
ISO : 200
F: 4.5
S: 1/640

April 15, 2011

Best Lens Money Can Buy
It is a solid workhorse lens for me. It does what I need it to do, day or night. It goes everywhere, all the time. I do not object to anything about the performance of this magnificent lens.
I marvel at the image quality even when pushed to the max. It is a Nikon. It is the best. Nikon is what I chose.
April 14, 2011

This Product a must
Wedding Photographer you have to have this lens.
The Brides are always wanting a group shot in 8x10 room. Well this lens wit go wall to wall. What sharpness you will not believe. I always have one D3 with this lens at every wedding i shoot..Even the whole wedding party were ever. Super Lens..
April 14, 2011

Great lens, but test it our before you buy!
This is one of the most impressive lenses in terms of optical quality that I have ever tested or owned, however I did come across a few samples that did not perform well on my Nikon D300. The one I ended up buying had very inconsistent focus (backfocus), that I was not able to correct with focus fine tune and I regret not buying the first sample I tested which was spectacular.
April 14, 2011

The clarity of shots from this lens is unmatched. Despite its relatively large size it is easy to handle.
My only complaint is the lack of ability to put filters, either screw on or Cokin type, on the lens.
April 14, 2011

Great for architecture. Fast. Love it!
I love this lens. Use it all the time for real estate listings. It always shoots impressively and is fast. Couldn't live without this one.
April 14, 2011

Excellent wide angle
I've used this lens for the last two years and find myself going out of my way looking for landscape compositions to suit it. More often than not I'm crawling around on my elbows and knees as this lens is great at framing items close and far in the same shot while keeping everything tack sharp.
-- J. Mason --
April 14, 2011

One of my favorite lenses
Along with my 70-200mm, this is my favorite lense for group activities and events. Fast and sharp, the only problem is wide open it has a little softness in the edges, barely noticable. I use this on a D3 and D700 and keep it on one of the two at all times. This lens has great close up capabilities and really allows for some creativity behind the camera. I wish Nikon would figure out some method for a protective filter, but with the curved lens, I don't see how. When used correctly, distortion is kept at a minimum and can be auto corrected in Lightroom post editing.
April 14, 2011

Excelent quality, very fast
Although is a bit heavy, the quality from 10 to 24 mm resolution is excelent and one of the best "glass" I used in my more than 40 years of photo pro, Hassy and Leica lenses included.
April 14, 2011

A must have
This lens is a tank, but well worth any of it's draw backs. It is the sharpest lens available. So if you love landscape, into close-up expansive shots, and available light; sell everything to acquire one.
April 14, 2011

I've always wanted a super wide angle lens for landscape work and I can comfortably say this lens gives me perspectives I never had before. The 14mm - 24mm range is superb along with the very sharp images this lens provides. It is my #1 lens when I am out searching for both landscape and seascape photographs.
April 14, 2011

Industry Standard
Excellent optical quality. Razor sharp imaging and extremely fast AF even in low light. A solid all around super wide zoom. I use it for live music, architecture and weddings. Worth every penny; especially if you want the best.
April 14, 2011

Love the lens - great results
The lens gives very clear quality images. Corrects for distortion. Loaned to a friend and she has since purchased one. Highly recommend it.
April 11, 2011

That's an awesome lens
I have been clicking for a long time and I am an amateur/pro-like photographer. :-))
I was planning to buy this lens for a long time (months actually) that would fit perfectly on my D700, but I thought "such expensive lens...". Before yesterday I bought it, taking advantage that my wife is traveling at her mums house (nobody to review my expense plans...).
I can tell you that when it arrived I immediately started to clicking around... Result: a big wow! That's impressive, that would unleash any talent you have inside...
January 22, 2011

Excellent for Tight Places
I have been using Nikon film and digital cameras and lenses for well over 40 years. I do a lot of Automobile Shows, and often find the need of a very wide angle lense, as most cars a grouped or parked rather close together in confined areas.
I purchased the 14-24mm zoom and started to use the lense immediately with excllent results
Of course when you shoot very wide and close you do get distortion, but from the artistic perspective it is very desirable, especially shooting those fin cars from the late fifties or hot rods from a low angle
This has now become very much my work horse lense for indoor car shows.
I recently completed a trip to the Oregon Coastline and once again shoot lighthouses for the scenic wide angle look out over the coastline into the ocean you cannot beat the results.
I am very happy with this lense, as its a perfect mate for both my D-200 and D-700. Highly recommend this especially for travel photography.
December 8, 2010

excellent lens
If you are looking for an extreme wide angle lens for full frame body and you do not mind the weight factor, then this is an excellent lens for you.
I use it for weddings and architecture images and simply love it.
It does not take any filters, so I always freak out when it starts to rain at the wedding shooting outdoor, but so far the lens has survived it without any damage to its front element.
It is incredibly sharp at any f stop.
Just be prepared that after using it for couple hours your neck muscles will feel it. highly recommended piece of art!

If nothing else to protect the lens glass from the elements while shooting or an accident, can Nikon recommend a filter manufacturer that has or can custom make filters for this lens. I'd like to also know the thinking behind the engineering of this lens to not allow the use of filters for it. Appreciate it before I consider buying this lens with this liability or risk factor. Thanks.

I bought mine with extra insurance protection that, for a reasonable price, covers accidental damage up to and even including full replacement. That said, you do want to be careful when carrying your camera around with this lens attached.

The D600 is a full-frame body and the 14-24 covers it entirely. The 17-35 also covers full frame. The question is, which focal length range you prefer. I own both lenses. Both deliver excellent images. The 17-35 has a wider focal length range and is somewhat more capable during events. It can also accept a filter. Frankly, though, I never use "protective" filters and rarely a polarizer which doesn't play well with wide angles unless I'm shooting wet foliage. My Singh-Ray graduated filters and holder is too small for the 17-35 so the fact that it CAN take a filter but I don't use one makes the issue moot. I like my 14-24 for landscape where I have time to work in the extreme wide range and careful composition is needed. I don't have to work quickly during landscape shoots so the bigger, heavier 14-24 is my choice.

The 17-35 is more useful if you cover events, journalism, and weddings.The 14-24 is more useful if you do landscapes, fine art, and architecture.

You pays your nickel and you takes your choices.

This lens is full frame (FX) as is the D600. There is no crop unless you choose to set the camera to that mode (and why you would do that, I can't imagine). It is the DX lenses that will shoot only in crop on a full frame sensor like the D600). I think this lens is amazing and prefer it to the 17-35mm.

When I clean the glass on the Nikon 14-24 2.8 with lens cleaner, lens tissue, and wipe off with a micro fiber cloth I am getting swirl marks. How do I get rid of the swirl marks without over cleaning and damaging the lens?

The hood on the AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED Lens is fixed onto the lens and is not meant to be removed. Please send your lens to Nikon to have the hood replaced by our technicians. Our service team will provide you with a repair estimate once they receive and evaluate your lens. You can find service information online at this address: https://support.nikonusa.com/app/an....

I would like to experiment with hyperfocal. Older Nikon lenses have the hyperfocal distance marks engraved but the 14-24 has none. Is there any tutorial available or perhaps Nikon could write a program that we could use to calculate the hyperfocal distances.

I believe you mean parfocal, a lens that stays in focus when magnification/focal length is changed.1) I've never tested the 14-24mm myself.2) Nikon doesn't say anything about it.3) But several third parties over the Internet say that "yes".

Will be doing a shoot inside a big hall in a few weeks and I have been having issues either picking the right lens or with my camera's settings when shooting video indoors. Some shots are exposed fine, some are too dark and then some are over exposed and I need to find a happen medium. I chose Nikon 14-24mm below but I wanted to know what you thought was the best lens for what I need to shoot.

Any Nikon lens with a maximum aperture or F-number of f/2.8 or lower would perform well indoors or in low lighting conditions. The 14-24mm lens is an ultra wide angle lens, so you will need to get as close as you can to your subjects. The AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II is a very good choice if you need to get close shots without moving closer and it's excellent for indoor shots. Prime lenses are also very good.

In addition to a microfiber cloth, is it possible to use as Lens Cleaning Solution the Eclipse E2 to clean the Nikkor 14-24 without any damages on the Nanocrystal coating or the lens itself ?

Thanks in advance for your answer,
